Individual Therapy

What is individual therapy?

Individual therapy is a therapeutic approach where a therapist helps you deal with the specific problem or question for which you seek assistance. During these individual sessions, the focus is solely on you and your needs.

 

 

Therapy can be beneficial for everyone, not just those who struggle with specific problems or disorders, but also for those who seek personal growth and self-awareness.

Together, we will explore different areas of your life, deepen your self-understanding, heal your inner child and generational traumas, and help you change your mindset.

During therapy, you can learn new skills such as self-acceptance, setting effective boundaries, assertive communication, reducing stress and anxiety for a more fulfilling life.

You meet with your therapist once a week or at a frequency that is most suitable for you. At “Like Minded Therapy,” the therapist collaborates with you to identify and ultimately overcome obstacles through therapeutic conversations, targeted skill development, and/or evidence-based psychotherapeutic techniques based on your needs.

The session duration helps maintain the therapists’ effectiveness and freshness.

– Initially, sessions are held on a weekly basis. Weekly sessions provide an opportunity for you to regularly share your feelings, thoughts, and experiences with the therapist, which contributes to the effectiveness of therapy. If you have made sufficient progress, you may transition to twice a month.

– Please note that weekly sessions are crucial for successful clinical outcomes. Research conducted by the American Psychological Association (APA) highlights the importance and effectiveness of weekly therapy sessions in various areas.

– However, the therapist will inform you, after the initial session, of their recommendations based on your individual needs.

– Consistency and frequency of therapy, the applied therapeutic approach, and your individual characteristics matter, as they help establish a therapeutic relationship Counseling, which is essential for therapeutic progress.

The success of therapy primarily depends on you, but the therapist also needs to invest in your progress.

At the beginning of the change process, you may experience resistance. The appearance of resistance is due to the conscious mind not knowing how to handle the unknown. This is completely normal. To change unconscious desires, we must become conscious of them.

Assessing the effectiveness of therapy is a personal and subjective experience. Here are some indicators that can help you assess whether therapy is working for you: increased self-awareness, improved coping strategies, better relationships, reduced symptoms, overall improved well-being.

It is important to note that the therapy process can be gradual, and setbacks may occur along the way.
